A Peace Sign to the Rescue


Today, I'm featuring bedding
made especially for a pre-teen girl!

Natalie is a firecracker of a little girl. She is spunky,
VERY quick witted , LOVES to laugh,
full of life and sometimes WISE beyond her years!
 
 Natalie's personality also shows in the fabrics, colors
and choices she made in her bedroom.


   Using pink and brown zebra, pink and brown damask,
a large brown dot and lime green swirl fabrics paired
with a pink eyelash trim and a lime green brush fringe
we created this great collection of pillows!

Three large 27" ruffled euro pillows in back,
two 20" square pillows with brush fringe and
one over sized neck roll pillow.
(plus a fun flower pillow she picked up along the way).

At this point Natalie and her Mom, Cheryl, were having trouble
deciding what to do with the comforter on the bed.
They really wanted something new until...


Chery came up with this amazingly creative idea!

Natalie LOVES peace signs.  So Cheryl had Catywhompus,
 a local business, applique this adorable calico peace sign
on her existing comforter!!!

I love this idea!


What a great solution to their dilemma !
It completely changed the look of the existing leopard print
comforter and made both Natalie and Cheryl happy campers!

 
(Take a look at Catywhompus at Etsy.com)

Wishing you a Wonderfully Blessed Day
full of Creativity!
